| Jane Hall is Salvation Jane, portrait by Armelle Habib |
Melbourne actor Jane Hall is very well known (hell, famous actually) for her on-screen talent. But, for years, she has also been very busy off-camera, renovating houses (both her own and her friends), and helping out mates with decorating dilemmas. She loves nothing better than to solve a deco problem. Last year I had a ball writing about
Jane's house for Real Living magazine (I won't take credit for the styling - it was the easiest job as Jane had done all the hard work for me!). So after years of it being a bit of a side project, Jane has decided to make it official and pursue both of her talents - I think she must be one of those people who doesn't need as much sleep as the rest of us.
Jane has cleverly called her business 'Salvation Jane': she is ready to solve any decorating dilemmas, and save any disastrous rooms you may have. She is passionate about color - just mention beige and you'll see her eyes glaze over...
Last week she started a great blog, and there are plans afoot for a shop, and a few other exciting projects. Stay tuned. You can check it all out at
Salvation Jane.
ps You can catch Jane on
The Circle on Network Ten at 10am on many mornings in the next few weeks,

Just finished watching The Circle with Jane Hall. I'm impressed! If she can do it, surely I can!
ReplyDeleteJane is a stylish, class act that exudes warmth and charm. I recently saw her renovated home profiled in a magazine and noted how beautifully she conveyed this within each room. How exciting she has taken this big step to share her insight and talent with others. I look forward to reading her blog.
ReplyDeleteHaving giving into ANOTHER guilty pleasure... number 13: watching The Circle (note with a cup of tea in peace as my children are having a 'sleepover' with my ever wonderful in-laws....bliss! LOVING school holidays) I was delighted to see the ever delightful Jane Hall. She talked about her new blog and venture SALVATION JANE. I set out to find it and to my delight ('win win' for me) I have discovered your wonderful blog in the process...yay! I confess ANOTHER guilty pleasure has been found....thank you Heather! Your blog is fab and I happily confess to have been enjoying a hypnotic afternoon of sunshine reading many of your entries. It has been a treat and I especially look forward to sharing your recent bedroom revamp entry with daughter number one (also 13 years).... a timely discovery! I have also discovered I already have a sense of knowing your great work having enjoyed your features previously one of my favourite magazines (guilty pleasures 16 through to 20....). It seems without even knowing I have been an admirer of your work for sometime! You are a great talent and I have been inspired by your visions many times. I look forward to enjoying your work and blog in the future..... for now though.....having rescued the in laws and collected my girls duty calls. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI just want to wish Jane Hall all the best with "Salvation Jane". I too watched "The Circle" and was taken back by Jane's authenticity and lovely personality. I admire the fact that she's created a business by doing what she loves. I also love her interior design theories in "salvaging" what we would deem as "junk" and giving it new life by adding clever pieces to make it all come together beautifully. Well done Jane!
